Abstract excerpt
Genome-wide association scans are rapidly becoming reality, but there is no present consensus regarding genotyping strategies to optimise the discovery of true genetic risk factors. For a given investment in genotyping, should tag SNPs be selected in a gene-centric manner, or instead, should coverage be optimised based on linkage disequilibrium alone? We explored this question using empirical data from the...
